Go cover Michigan, they love the "bullet dodged" comments.

 

[DONTH8]

I agree.

I don't think ND has been in a worse place since I became a fan, and that's saying something.

To be this bad, struggling this much in recruiting, while practically every single rival and local school is flourishing.

Michigan is coming off back to back 10 win seasons.
Ohio State has lost only 5 games total in 5 seasons under Meyer. Kelly has lost 5 or more games in 4 seasons during his tenure.
Wisconsin is in the B1G Title
Penn State beat Ohio State and is in the B1G Title.
USC is arguably the hottest team in the game right now.
Stanford had a solid 9-3 season.

Hell, Michigan State is horrible, but we can't even gain any ground on them, because they beat us.

Woe, the f*ck, is us...

On the bright side, we're not Purdue...

 

[Rack Em]

He's gone. Almost certainly flipping. This class is going to utterly fall apart, that's what happens when you go 4-8 and have a reviled head coach.

Which is doubly great, because it means we'll have even more holes on the roster because we did such a shit job of depth recruiting in previous classes at certain positions. We're likely to be playing with ~70-75 scholarship players next year.

How can we depth recruit when Kelly is doing his annual "Where else can I take my mediocre talents?" shuffle?

Seriously, FUCK Kelly. He thinks he's goddamn Urban Meyer, but Urban Meyer never went 4-8 against a crap schedule with a veteran QB. Even when Meyer lost the locker room to thugs and idiots, he still churned out great seasons.

Kelly is nothing more than a mediocre coach who is more than willing to stomp on ND to get what he believes he deserves. Newsflash jackass: you've done nothing Will Muschamp didn't do at Florida. A couple of good seasons surrounded by a shit sandwich.

Thanks for leaving our University and football program as a dumpster fire.

You're right- they actually demand success from their football coach.

Yikes

Who could blame the kid with the dumpster for going on in South Bend right now?

It appears we need to put half this board on suicide watch.

What's worse than hate? Indifference.

There are fewer and fewer ND fans left to care about the football team.

Well.......I'm not mad or upset that Pete is gonna go play for Urbie, however, let's go ahead and get this ship righted. ND isn't ever going to be more than mediocre unless they get their collective heads out of their asses, and realize that football put their school on the map. Time to start recruiting athletes, and worrying less about the grad rates. Their not gonna be able to play a full comprehensive schedule and carry the class load and requirements that they're required to do. For fukks sake, look at Stanford. Yes, they require you to not be an absolute idiot of a human being, but you're not required to necessarily play school. Enough of the bullshit 8-5 seasons......not to mention this dumpster fire of a season, smdh!!!

How many Kelly losses are attributable to a talent gap? Maybe 5? The USC losses, OSU and Bama are the only ones that immediately come to mind. If Kelly were 85-5 we'd all be happy.

Good bye Pete. Only plus Notre Dame has is a better degree...

 

[ThePiombino]

Sweet comment by JU. I guess ISD isn't above the fray after all...

Just stopped by here for the first time in a month to say....

YEP.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Sad Notre Dame can't keep the best instate prospects home...

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Any way Notre Dame can pull an Aaron Lynch with him?

Or he is long gone?

Only Plus?!

Only Plus?!

I wouldn't say only. When this guy is wondering what to do the rest of his life when he doesn't become a pro or plays no more than 3-4 years lets see how far the OSU degree gets him. He'll be delivering pizzas to guys from ND and UM and wondering WTF?! Where will Urban be then? Burnt out again and retiring for one year when he said for good. Dumb Schitt imo.

No offense. But your comment, in and of itself, sucks. Not saying you're a bad person, because I'm no gem, but seriously, this is lame. And I despise OSU's football program.

Tennessee lost 3 recruits tonight. So other programs are having issues too.

The CFO we just hired for our start up was a double Fisher grad. He's built and sold a start up that went for $30M. They're not all out delivering pizzas. Fisher's undergraduate business school rating is above Wharton's according to Bloomberg. Just saying, don't believe all the hype. You can get all the education you want from OSU if you take advantage of it and play school AND football.

Come in dude. You act like getting a degree from Ohio State is like getting an associates degree for community college.

OSU is still one of the better universities in the nation. If he puts the academic work in, he should still be able to get a very nice job.

Of course we can't recruit pass rushers and difference makers on defense and when we actually land THREE guys who can actually attack the line of scrimmage and get after the QB we lose all 3!! FUCK YOU BK and your lazy ass recruiting tactics and your lazy ass recruiting staff. How the hell do we lose a kid from a feederl school in freaking INDY

Yes, you guys don't need to tell me I'm mad or remind me. I am fucking mad

Nice t hear. any idea what % of the graduates are from the football team with that major? I do maybe 1 a year and it's not gonna be this guy. Going to get a generic degree get the backing of the ND alum especially if you played on the FB team. IF you decide to live in Columbus going to OSU might work but what is their FB player grad rate? also not nearly as good as ND and probably not much real educating going on for the Urban football players.

Stop. What's Werner's major going to be?

Think of some of our defensive recruits we lost over the years with BK because of laziness or just being out worked or him fucking up with the Eagles. Imagine if we just kept half of these guys!!

Aaron Lynch
Alex Anzalone
Ronald Darby
Eddie Vanderdoes
Danny Mattignly I liked him as a player a lot
Richard Yeargin
Robert Beal
Peter Werner
Brian Poole
Donovan Jeter really like this kid
Davante Neal could have been an explosive slot DB for us
D Rob
Caleb Kelly


who else am I missing that guys were close to coming to ND or actually might have been leaning that we lost out on? This could be fun and interesting. Would love to hear stories as well also if you have a question about recruitment I will most likely remember
